Today I got a very interesting reply from CIC, I have been submitting web forms frequently and highlighting issues regarding the information in GCMS for Birth certificate request but never actually received any such requests. The response I got last week was " we have informed the VO to send you the request for Birth certificate information as soon as possible and also updated the same on your file".

I waited for a week and submitted the web form again stating that I have still not received anything from Visa office. I received the response today stating that "If you do not receive more information or a decision by March 21, 2019, we invite you to contact us again"
 
Its a good news and a positive hope for

So am i, August Applicant. Hoping for some good news soon.
Its good to keep hopes high but i dont know if it will be anytime soon
April may and very few june applicants are hearing something now from ndvo
I think we still have to hang in tight for 2-3 months

My wife is with me in Canada on visitor visa and today all of sudden her home address in ECAS has been updated to our Canadian address where we are residing together. For past couple of months ECAS was only showing the mailing address and there was no mention of home address. Is this normal? Has anyone experienced this before? We are June 19th applicant and file was transferred to NDVO in Jan. 2019.
 
Status update in GCKey - "Background Check in Progress, will contact you if any information is required"

Till Last week, it was "Background check not started"

I think that when there is a ghost update in GcKey, it means that there will be a final decision on file updated in gckey in 2-3 days. But, other experts here can confirm this better than me :)

Thanks to IRCC for their NEW online system coming up 1st week of MARCH :----
"Starting March, you will see a progress bar for your online application. The progress bar shows the time elapsed since we received your application. It will also give you an estimated completion date based on our latest estimated processing times.
We will let you know by e-mail when the progress bar is available for your application."
